Abstract excerpt
We report contiguous gene deletions in the distal short arm of the X chromosome in two patients with ichthyosis, due to steroid sulfatase deficiency, and other complex phenotypes. One patient had chondrodysplasia punctata (CDP) and ichthyosis with a normal chromosome constitution. Another patient had a CDP-like phenotype, ichthyosis, and hypogonadism.
